Wearable word counter
This disclosure generally relates to a system for communicating data generated by a wearable device to one or more server devices for analysis. The one or more server devices may transmit activity level data, or a graphical representation thereof, for a wearer of a wearable device to a device associated with a healthcare provider. The activity level data may include one or more of an active minutes element, a television time element, a word count element, a sleep duration element and a reading duration and score element.
1. A system, comprising:
a wearable device generating child activity data,
wherein the wearable device includes an analog input that includes a microphone for receiving input representative of human speech and transforming the input representative of human speech into a signal;
wherein the device detects one or more instances where the signal exceeds a threshold and identifies each instance where the signal exceeded the threshold as a spoken syllable and, based on the number of spoken syllables, determines a word count for the number of words received in the input representation of human speech,
one or more server devices analyzing the child activity data to determine an activity level of a wearer of the wearable device and transmit activity level data for graphical display on a health care provider device, and
wherein determining the activity level of a wearer includes determining the number of words received by the wearable device in the input representative of human speech.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the wearable device includes a microphone.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the wearable device includes an accelerometer.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the wearable device includes a light sensor.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the child activity data is generated based on information received via one or more of a microphone, an accelerometer, or a light sensor disposed within the wearable device.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the activity level data transmitted for graphical representation on the health care provider device includes data representative of a duration of time in which the wearer of the wearable device is active on a per-day basis.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the activity level data transmitted for graphical representation on the health care provider device includes data representative of a duration of time in which the wearer of the wearable device watches television a per-day basis.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the activity level data transmitted for graphical representation on the health care provider device includes data representative of a word count of words spoken to the wearer of the wearable device on a per-day basis.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the activity level data transmitted for graphical representation on the health care provider device includes data representative of a duration of time in which the wearer of the wearable device is asleep on a per-day basis.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the activity level data transmitted for graphical representation on the health care provider device includes data representative of a duration of time in which the wearer of the wearable device is engaged in a reading session on a per-day basis.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the activity level data transmitted for graphical representation on the health care provider device further includes data representative of a score of the reading session on a per-day basis.
12. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a secondary device receiving the child activity data and transmitting the child activity data to the one or more server devices.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the secondary device is implemented as a smart phone.
14. The system of claim 12 , wherein the secondary device is implemented as a tablet.
15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the secondary device is implemented as a charging station.
